I have the same on Dell 6520.

touchpad works to some extend, i.e. I can scroll (only vertically though), tap to click works. But the stick and tocuhpad are recognised as one device:

ImPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint

I have the same on my old laptop Dell E5510.

It would be really nice to be able to disable the touchpad only and use the stick!
Or, at least configure the touchpad properly (i.e. as touchpad, not as a mouse).
